What's the story?
This September, Maptitude 2025 delivers a major boost to your fleet and delivery workflows with enhancements to the routing, directions, and vehicle-management tools:
- Exclude specific link types (like ferries) or custom-defined road segments from routing calculations, offering precise control over route selection
- Plan routes with precision using per-mile or per-hour cost modeling – ideal for fuel, labor, or refrigerated ("reefer") operations
- Minimize vehicle idle time to cut labor costs and boost fleet utilization
- Export Excel route summaries and details, including stops, timestamps, distances, and cost breakdowns
- Analyze coverage using unlimited drive-time rings and multi-origin influence areas
Why is this important?
Streamlined routing transforms logistics into a strategic advantage. With Maptitude 2025, you can:
- Reduce operational costs by optimizing vehicle usage and minimizing idle time
- Generate rich, shareable route summaries for stakeholders or audit trails
- Evaluate territory or service coverage using advanced drive-time analytics
- Tailor routing behavior to avoid ferry crossings or roads with low clearance, ensuring routes align with fleet constraints and safety standards
Whether you're managing refrigerated delivery fleets, dispatching service vehicles, or planning logistics networks, Maptitude 2025 gives you the analytics and flexibility to keep your routes efficient, cost-effective, and fully transparent.
